Gray Code: Floating Point Album Design

05.16.2010

Gray Code explores the physicality of sound through layered rhythmic patterns, complex collage, and the computer manipulation of guitar, clarinets, and percussion. Floating Point is a series of live performances over a period of 2 years, representing the evolution of this unique outfit’s experimentations with the combination of free improvisation and interactive electronics. Studio Mercury’s album design created a physical manifestation of these performance though optical patterns developed in the 1900’s for sound visualization. Letterpress on a unique “rubber-like” paper, each album was numbered as a limited edition to extend the artistic creation.
